12.12.24 03:20 PM - By Kim

2024 has been a year of remarkable progress for DSL Telecom, filled with growth, innovation, and achievements. None of this would have been possible without the dedication and hard work of our team members and the support of our valued partners and customers.


Let's take a look at some of our 2024 highlights:

Celebrated 15 years In Business

This year, DSL Telecom celebrated 15 years in business - a milestone marked by growth and success. To support our expanding operations, we added 200 square metres to our office space, and proactively recruited top talent, growing our team by more than 20%. These investments ensure we have the capacity to maintain our strong momentum in serving our customers and supporting our connectivity partners Telkom, Vox, and MTN - while staying ready for the opportunities that lie ahead.

Zoho Partnership And Awards

The year began on a high note for DSL Telecom with the award for Zoho’s Key Business Contributor for South Africa, at the Zoho Inspire MEA conference in Dubai. This accolade solidified our position as a reputable provider of Zoho's software solutions in South Africa, assuring customers of expert support from our team.


The annual Zoholics events in Cape Town and Johannesburg were a success, delivering valuable insights, networking opportunities, and hands-on learning. DSL Telecom made a strong impression with a kiosk showcasing our expertise and a Scratch-to-Win competition offering great prizes.


DSL Telecom’s journey as a Zoho Premium Partner was highlighted on a Zoho MEA podcast, where Founder and MD Dean Schreuder shared insights on the company’s 15-year journey and team-focused culture.


Furthermore, DSL Telecom proudly maintained its Zoho Premium Partner status for 2024. This highest tier of partnership. This empowers us to deliver superior solutions and faster, more efficient support to our customers.


Team members enhanced their skills at a Zoho Partner Technical Workshop, mastering tools for Zoho CRM, Catalyst, and Creator, and earning CRM Plus certifications. We also attended a Zoho Finance Suite Partners workshop, exploring the new VAT-ready Zoho Books SA edition.

DSL Telecom's events and functions

Throughout 2024, we celebrated milestones and enjoyed time together as a team. We kicked off with the grand opening of our newly expanded office space, marking an exciting chapter for DSL Telecom. 

Midyear, we hosted a boerewors braai on our company balcony, giving everyone a chance to catch up and enjoy the sunshine.

The highlight of the year was our Rock Fest-themed year-end party, where we celebrated our achievements in true rock 'n' roll style. The event included awards for our top performers, recognising their outstanding contributions, and an unforgettable night of music and celebration.
